Rivet or an offset collar button of some sort? :dontknow:

Anyway, could've been worse. :)

Happy 4th O July folks!

the band looks like a bird band for maybe a large bird of prey

Could be. But, don't they put some sort of other info on those? :icon_scratch:

Thanks

Lambs tag, I find them very often because they come off the lambs ear very easily. Now we have moved to tattooing.
 

leather rivet -- to hold together leather objects like on a saddle or horse tack -stress possible bent it causing it to "pop out /loose --I like the lil lizard my self.
 

Hi whadifindat at least you were able to get out and hunt, some can't =) Find those leather rivets out in fields fairly often sometimes with leather in between still. They always make me think Iv'e got a coin they sound so good.
 

Hey, that's a good day for me! Ha!

I find the rivets too, just didn't think they were as widespread as they are.

HH!
 

nice Salamandre ! :icon_thumright:

Its been a busy week w work and holiday and all but now its almost too darn hot out.....notice i said almost:laughing7:
 

It's great that you were able to get out for a dig session. We can't find 1792 half dismes and 1794 silver dollars every time out. :laughing7:

I know nothing about lambs tags. How would they be attached? This seems to be a preformed ring of some sort. Fairly large I think.

Ya know, this rivet may have had a bit of old leather on it when found. I remember the dirt seeming a bit darker than I expected when I dusted it off. :)

The lizard? I found him back a few hunts ago and I just liked it when he posed in some of my pictures. He's been in all of them since. LOL

Kind of a mascot without a name. :)

Thanks!

Yeah, I tend to forget sometimes. I am blessed now with the time and freedom to go every day if my body lets me. Definitely a better hunt than none. ;)

This rivet did give me a solid but very short penny hit. Too good to ignore. :)

Thanks!

When it's hot out I just start looking for those coins they lost, in the shade. LOL

The band you found slides over the lamb's ear, kinda like a bracelet for a big ear. This is why they come off very easily.
